O teach us more of Thy blest ways

O teach us more of Thy blest ways, Thou holy Lamb of God! And fix and root us in Thy grace, As those redeemed by blood.

O tell us often of Thy love, Of all Thy grief and pain! And let our hearts with joy confess That thence comes all our gain.

For this, O may we freely count Whate'er we have but loss! The dearest object of our love Compared with Thee but dross.

Engrave this deeply on our heart, Conform our ways to Thine, That so we may, in some degree, Reflect the light divine.
